YESTERDAY'S GONE

Terrible Tragedy: Heath Ledger

Statements he previously made:

I only do this because I'm having fun. The day I stop having fun, I'll just walk away.
• Interview in Vanity Fair (August 2000)

It's like anything in life, visualizing the old man you're going to become: As long as you have a clear picture of that — the life you want to lead — eventually you'll probably get there.
• Variety, December 2005

Having a child changes every aspect of your life — for the better, of course. The sacrifices are large, but what you get in return is even bigger than the sacrifices you make. I feel, in a sense, ready to die because you are living on in your child. Not literally, not ready to die — but you know, that sort of feeling in a profound way.
• Ledger during interview with Susan Chenery for In Touch Weekly, in November 2007

When I die, my money's not gonna come with me. My movies will live on for people to judge what I was as a person. I just want to stay curious.
• Interview for London's Sunday Telegraph magazine, (18 November 2007)

Quotes About Ledger:

Heath Ledger is frighteningly young and frighteningly intelligent. He's a very hard worker, very devoted [and] not a bit spoiled or pretentious.
• Mark Addy

He's walking around with a $40 million plus film on his shoulders like he's been doing it all his life.
• Paul Bettany

We tested a lot of people and when Heath came along, he had the same manly qualities Mel Gibson had as a young man. They're never really boys; they already have it
• The Patriot director Roland Emmerich on casting Ledger, quoted in US Weekly, July 24, 2000.

2008 In Memoriam:

Heath has touched so many people on so many different levels during his short life but few had the pleasure of truly knowing him. He was a down to earth, generous, kind-hearted, life-loving, unselfish individual who was extremely inspirational to many.
• His father, Kim Ledger

It was a very great challenge for Heath. He's extremely original, extremely frightening, tremendously edgy. A very young character, a very anarchic presence that taps into a lot of our basic fears and panic.
• Dark Knight, director Christopher Nolan

Please respect our need to grieve privately. My heart is broken. I am the mother of the most tender-hearted, high-spirited, beautiful little girl who is the spitting image of her father. All that I can cling to is his presence inside her that reveals itself every day. His family and I watch Matilda as she whispers to trees, hugs animals, and takes steps two at a time, and we know that he is with us still. She will be brought up with the best memories of him.
• His ex-girlfriend, Michelle Williams

Rest In Peace, The Incredible. Loss of a remarkable talent, the passing of an extraordinary man who will be greatly missed.
